Lots of blacks started going back to Africa this was called the “Back to Africa” movement. This movement was for them to go back to Africa and not come back. This movement started from a man named Marcus Garvey. Although he started this is quickly ended after he was arrested for fraud. Once he was arrested no body went back to Africa all blacks stayed. Some punishments of being caught we’re being tortured, branded, or whipped sometimes just killed. Some blacks even got hung by their tongue and we’re flown over a country and back. Everyone was scared of the KKK.
